Gender Studies Minor 

The purpose of the UNC Gender Studies Program is to enable participants, as students and lifelong learners, to investigate gender issues through interdisciplinary approaches. We examine various ways in which race/ ethnicity, class, sexuality, nationality, age, and ability affect how cultures create structures of gender, power, and inequality.  The program equips participants to understand complexities of identity in the ever-changing context of their personal, political and social lives.
